It was learned to-day that many private appeals have been made for a word or two from the President on behalf of deserving Republicans who feel thanselves in tight places, but that all these requests have Leen rejected.

much shorter dialance from mill to consumer, Great Britain's position British trade marks aro well, and favourably known, and old-estab lished houses are handling this trade with the strong backing, of British banks. The items which yo to make up the bulk of Great Britain's trade with China are those in which British manufactur ers excel, namely, plain white shirtings, all classes of printed cottons, lawna, dyed plain and. fancy cottons, velvets, and velve teens. Great Britain is losing both to Japanese and Chinese manufac tarors much of its business in coar ser cloths, but in lines in which Japan and China do not compete it is believed that Great Britain will continue to secure the bulk of the business unless far more serious competition than heretoforo deve lops from the United States,"

With reference to the question of consumption, any improvement de pends upon American purchases.
With reference to the computa tion of stocks of rubber made at the end of August, which put the figure at 483,523 tons, it is mention- ed in the circular issued by Mosers. Symington, Sinclair & Co. that there are quantities of which no account has been taken, and that $24.70 $25 the total of world stocks at that
